Ladbrokes European Online Championship of Poker Has a Winner

Gene_R took down the LEOCOP and his first place winnings of $25,932.50. The final hand clinched it for him when his 5, 4, of hearts made a full house at the turn and all chips went in to bring the contest to a close.

Positioning on the LEOCOP leader board has been wild lately with most top positions switching around on a daily basis. Tournament organizers attribute all the action to the determination of the field to acquire as many points as possible in order to gain invitations to the master event on November 22nd.

With a finish in the money for any of the upcoming smaller events, the players are guaranteed to be propelled high in the rankings to secure a better placement. Competition has been fierce and the next several days promise to be action filled.

Ladbrokes is experiencing record numbers with enrollment in these tournaments as of late. The larger prize pools as a result of increased enrollment should guarantee a continuous upward trend.

The Europeans continue to be fierce competition for one another in these battles. I for one would love to see some more international battlegrounds continue to open up, making these types of competitions available to all.

Good luck to all. We'll be cheering you on.
